How to get Mega Medicham

You cannot catch Medicham in its mega evolved form from the raid. The mega raid boss is always catchable in its base form, and as such, the CP ranges are for a regular Medicham.

Medicham can be caught with the following CP values:

  • 764 – 817 CP at Level 20, no weather boost
  • 955 – 1022 CP at Level 25, boosted by Windy and Cloudy weather

In order to get Mega Medicham, you will need 100 Mega Energy for the initial evolution, then 20 Mega Energy to evolve the same Medicham again in the future. If you wait for their ‘cooldown’ period to end, Mega Evolution is free. This cooldown period is shorter the higher mega level your Mega Pokémon is. Mega Energy can be obtained via Mega Medicham Raids, and once you have evolved Mega Medicham, you can earn 10 Mega Energy per candy while walking it as your buddy. You can walk any Meditite or Medicham to earn Mega Energy, as long as you have previously evolved one to register it to your Mega Pokédex.
